You do not need immigration attorney. You can do it by yourself.

But she will reach menopause in 2-3 yrs, she may need frequent doctor visits for hormone replacement therapy.

Take it easy man!

If you read the forums you will have enough to prepare by yourself. Make sure you keep records of all info as to when you met, pics of wedding .... if you invest the time in reading you may be fine ... if you don't want to ... then get a lawyer. When you send docs ... be meticulous and write cover letters etc. Be very professional and you should be fine (i.e. if you do it by yourself).

Your out of status part will be pardoned for an AOS interview. So that is not an issue. What you have to do is to prove the bona fide nature of your marriage to a USC. To do that you have to show that both of you own joint property, bank accounts, leases, etc. The only issue that may come up during your AOS interview is the difference in your ages.

You dont need an attorney for file for marriage based GC. There is a "How to file a GC..." as a top thread (Sticky) under the family based Green Cards- Through Marriage or a Relative. That will give you enough information. Spend some time reading all the information. It is very straightforward.

I second that what Resident said..completely uncalled for opinions!

But, I would say those comments were not insightful (besides being factually inaccurate given the information) and more neurotic than psychoanalytic :-). Just in case the poster didn't realize, hormone replacement is not advised these days due to side effects! Sarcasm is nice but there are other venues for it.

u sir, got it wrong.. 50 is the new 40, 40 is the new 30, 30 is the new 20!!!

if ur 20 then ur 20 nothing new for u. if u r 14 then nothing new for u cuz u just an effing kid
 
The key is the bona fides evidence, the age difference can raise a few eyebrows as has evidently done in this forum.

That’s not true. Estrogen is still used to treat symptoms of menopause. But HRT is not considered for long term treatment of menopause symptoms.

Reference:
Harrisons principle’s of internal medicine 17th edition
Current Medical diagnosis & Treatment 2010 (CMDT 2010)

Both are gold standard references

I agree with Indian_Citizen with this response. But I find his earlier response uncalled for. It's not befitting to make such remarks.

Yes you are absolutely right. There are couple of reasons why I wrote what I wrote. But, lets leave it at that (for it not being relevant on this forum as the moderator suggested).

Since I am part of the reason this thread went awry, I will try to summarize all the comments for the poster:

~ Filing for AOS can be done without a lawyer. There is enough material on this site and others where you can find information. The key is you have to spend time reading the documents, instructions and organize the evidence regarding your marriage.

~ Need to show bona fide nature of marriage (joint property, holdings, banks, leases, living together, letters, insurances, joint plans, joint travel..etc.) If you look around this forum you can find a ton of material as to what can be considered as evidence

~ Age difference maybe frowned upon by the IO, but not an insurmountable problem if you have evidence of your bona fide marriage

Conclusion, is age got nothing to do, if she's 41 but has kept herself good and you look good together (if it's 20 or less years difference). Even if not, if your relationship is genuine and your portray you'll be ok.

Just research all the necessary documentation needed to ensure a smooth process.

you 24, recently out of status, marrying 41 USC.. .you DEFINATELY need an attorney; for me and other group readers it can be love, faith, friendship, etc... for USCIS Officers its a 99% scham - a marriage created to envade immigration law.

I dont believe a mountain of bona-fide marriage documentation will sufficient and OP will go towards proving lack of "good faith". I think you need a good attorney involved right from a start.

The problem with USCIS is that new government cut so much "dotations" that if OP does not buy your "love" story (I wont, you probably wouldnt either -- however I am not saying your marriage is not bona fide), then what they do they will put you on couple years of waiting instead of digging into marriage in question (and therefore spending their fundings) - remember putting you on hold does not cost them anything -- its not that they are denying you, they just dont believe you but lack of tools to prove your wrong will put you on a long hold).

Therefore -- you WILL loose more money through all those years waiting an inquiring rather than just taking an attorney right now and having everything done upfront. Trust me! -- been there, done that!

such a difference in age between couple is a definately a red flag that this marriage was purely created for immigration purposes, not any other. sorry, just reality check.

and how will the prove their marriage is genuine? photos? bills? lease? gifts? buying somebodys a crap is easy. staging on the photos is simple. adding someons name to papers is an easy task as well.

The only real prove would be a child on its way, but like someone said unfortunately USC is getting old and that "prove" would be hard to present (sorry, lack of words here)
